9.B.5. PRSR 09-08-1999 .�/ A( Item #: 9.B.5. �y of � 1k River MEMORANDUM River TO: Park and Recreation Commission FROM: Michele McPhersorector of Planning DATE: September 1, 1999 SUBJECT: Discuss Orono Park Skating Rink Request Staff requests that the Commission review possible locations for a skating rink at Orono Park. Attachments • Map of Orono Park Analysis • Phil Hals will present information at the meeting regarding the possible establishment of a skating rink at Orono Park. In the past, a rink on the lack has been discussed, however, the quality of lake ice is not always best due to the cracking that occurs as the weather changes. Two possible locations include the parking lot near the lake, and the open area under the water tower. Obviously, the closer the rink is to the lake, the more aesthetically pleasing the skating experience, especially at night. Phil Hals will provide additional details regarding these ideas at the meeting. Recommendation Review the provided information and provide staff with additional direction regarding the proposed skating rink at Orono Park. • 13065 Orono Parkway • P.O.
